During Race

Safety is our #1 priority. While we work with local authorities and DOT to shut down as many roads as possible, a portion of the course is open to vehicles so it’s important to be aware. We discourage headphones and no dogs are allowed per USATF sanctioning. Follow our directional signs, volunteers and law enforcement – they know the course and where you need to be running. Use every water stop to stay hydrated on the course and have fun, we’ll see you at the finish line!
Post Race

Hang around a while. We’ll have the DJ playing your favorite tunes, post race food, beer and games – plus awards for top 3 overall male and female as well as age groups (every 5 years) for both the 5K and Half Marathon male and female runners. Bring a chair if you’d like, signs to cheer on others and enjoy the after party with us!
